3. MSN Idle 9h on 2G: Battery 97% down to 74% = 23% in 8h = 2,555% per hour.
4. MSN idle 8h on 3G: Battery 96% down to 55% = 41% in 8h = 5,125% per hour.

Also Idle with nothing online:
8h on 2G: Battery 96% down to 89% = 7% in 8h = 0,875% per hour.

MSN Messenger eats your battery! But its reasonable on 2G.
I tested Jabber with msn gateway. Started it after charging completed.
Jabber Idle 9,5h on 2G: Battery 96% down to 86% = 10% in 9,5h = 1,052% per hour. (that was "lshal | grep battery")
But bq27200.sh showed down from 100% to 94% = 6%, thats 0,631% per hour.
